Photosynthesis in C4 plants is relatively less limited by atmospheric CO2 levels because :

  • Four carbon acids are the primary initial CO2 fixation products
  • The primary fixation of CO2 is mediated via PEP carboxylase
  • Effective pumping of CO2 into bundle sheath cells
  • Rubisco in C4 plants has a higher affinity for CO2
